Recording streaming radio seems to be one of the more popular requests these days.XstreamRadio as a reliable program that I have just downloaded to my Comp. It doesn't offer scheduled recording, but it does an effective job of recording live streams to either MP3 or WAV format. The app includes a long list of streaming stations from around the globe as well as supporting streams added by you. The player takes up little room on the desktop in either the full mode or minimized ticker mode. The ticker streams headlines from news sources like BBC, NBC, CNN and CNET. [Windows 9x/2k/XP $0.00]
